Run and gun through Pharloom as Cuphead: real hand-drawn animations, the Peashooter, EX shots and parries, from your own copy of Cuphead.
Hornet steps aside: you're Cuphead now. Every frame is Cuphead's own hand-drawn animation, read from your Cuphead install the first time you press Play. Your needle becomes the Peashooter (hold to fire, aim up and diagonally), silk skills fire Cuphead's EX shot, and Cross Stitch is a proper Cuphead parry. Peashots still refill silk, open levers and fill your Hunter's Journal, and you can still pogo with a down-attack. Cuphead's own sound effects come along too.
Needs Hollow Knight: Silksong and Cuphead (both on Steam). Single player.
